2 Installing BlackDiamond 8800 Series Hardware
4 Site Preparation This chapter includes the following sections: ● Planning Your Site on page 65 ● Meeting Site Requirements on page 66 ● Evaluating and Meeting Cable Requirements on page 72 ● Meeting Power Requirements on page 78 ● Applicable Industry Standards on page 80 The information in this chapter is intended for the system administrator, network equipment technician, network manager, or facilities manager responsible for installing and managing the network hardware.
Site Preparation Meeting Site Requirements This section describes requirements to consider when preparing your installation site, including: ● Operating Environment Requirements ● Rack Specifications and Recommendations Operating Environment Requirements Verify that your site meets all environmental and safety requirements. Virtually all areas of the United States are regulated by building codes and standards.
Wiring Closet Considerations Be aware of the following recommendations for your wiring closet: ● Be sure that your system is easily accessible for installation and service. See “Rack Specifications and Recommendations” on page 70 for information. ● Use appropriate AC or DC power, power distribution, and grounding for your specific installation. ● Use a vinyl floor covering in your wiring closet. (Concrete floors accumulate dust, and carpets can cause static electricity.
Site Preparation Humidity To maximize equipment life, keep operating humidity between 50% and 70% relative humidity (noncondensing) during typical operation. The equipment can operate between 10% and 95% relative humidity (non-condensing) for short intervals. Chassis Spacing Requirements Extreme Networks recommends placing no more than three BlackDiamond chassis next to each other because of to chassis-to-chassis heating.
Figure 37: Airflow Through the BlackDiamond 8810 Chassis Airflow through fan tray Airflow at power supply level ASP045 Electrostatic Discharge Your system must be protected from static electricity or electrostatic discharge (ESD). Take the following measures to ensure optimum system performance: ● Remove materials that can cause electrostatic generation (such as synthetic resins) from the wiring closet. Check the appropriateness of floor mats and flooring.
Site Preparation Rack Specifications and Recommendations Racks should conform to conventional standards. In the United States, use EIA Standard RS-310C: Racks, Panels, and Associated Equipment. In countries other than the United States, use IEC Standard 297. In addition, verify that your rack meets the basic mechanical, space, and earthquake requirements that are described in this section.
● Position the earth ground as close to the equipment rack as possible to maintain the shortest wiring distance possible. ● Use a ground impedance tester or micro-ohm meter to test the quality of earth ground connection at the chassis. This will insure good grounding between the chassis, rack, and earth ground. NOTE Because building codes vary worldwide, Extreme Networks strongly recommends that you consult an electrical contractor to ensure proper equipment grounding for your specific installation.
Site Preparation Evaluating and Meeting Cable Requirements This section describes requirements for the cable you should use when installing your network equipment.
Selecting Cable This section provides information that is helpful when you must select the cables to be used with the BlackDiamond 8800 series switch. Cable Distances Table 17 shows cable media types and maximum distances that support reliable transmission in accordance with international standards, except where noted.
Site Preparation Figure 40: RJ-45 Connector Jacket Types Not recommended Best Better SPG_001 Cable for the 8900-G96T-c Module The 8900-G96T-c I/O module uses MRJ21 connectors for the module ports. Each connector provides six ports.
Installing Cable Consider the following recommendations when you connect cable to your network equipment: ● Examine cable for cuts, bends, and nicks. ● Support cable using a cable manager that is mounted above connectors to avoid unnecessary weight on the cable bundles. ● Use cable managers to route cable bundles to the left and right of the network equipment to maximize accessibility to the connectors. ● Provide enough slack, approximately 2 to 3 inches (5.08 to 7.
Site Preparation Figure 42: Properly Installed and Bundled Cable Cable managers supporting and directing cables Proper bundling of cables Adequate slack, and bend radius SPG_008 Fiber Optic Cable Fiber optic cable must be handled carefully during installation. Every cable has a minimum bend radius, for example, and fibers will be damaged if the cables are bent too sharply. It is also important not to stretch the cable during installation.
Figure 43: Bend Radius for Fiber Optic Cable Minimum 2-in. (5.08-cm) radius in 90∞ bend 90∞ Optical fiber cable SPG_002 Radio Frequency Interference If you use UTP cabling in an installation, take precautions to avoid RF interference. RF interference can cause degradation of signal quality, and, in an Ethernet network environment, can cause excessive collisions, loss of link status, or other physical layer problems that can lead to poor performance or loss of communication.
Site Preparation Meeting Power Requirements This section describes power requirements, including: ● PoE Devices ● Power Supply Requirements ● AC Power Cord Requirements ● Uninterruptible Power Supply Requirements PoE Devices When connecting power over Ethernet (PoE) devices to a PoE switch, all connections between the PoE device and the switch must remain within the same building and must use a low-voltage power distribution system per IEEE 802.3af.
AC Power Cord Requirements AC power input cords are not provided with BlackDiamond power supplies. To purchase a power cord for your product and for your specific country, contact your local Extreme Networks Channel Account Manager or Sales Manager, or purchase a cord from your local supplier. Make sure that the power cord you use is certified for the country of end use and suitable for the device. Check your local electrical codes and regulatory agencies for power cable requirements.
Site Preparation NOTE Extreme Networks recommends that you use a UPS that provides online protection. Calculating Volt-Amperage Requirements To determine the minimum volt-amperage requirements for your UPS: 1 Locate the voltage and amperage requirements for each piece of equipment. These numbers are usually located on a sticker on the back or bottom of your equipment.

The following are power cord requirements for use on Extreme switches: Black Diamond SSI 700/1200 W AC PSU Model 60020: ● The power supply cord must be agency-certified for country of use, and rated at 10A by in-country regulatory authority. ● The power supply cord must have an IEC 320 C13, 90-degree angle plug to connect to the IEC320 C14 connector on the power supply. ● The power cord must have an appropriately rated and approved wall plug applicable to the country of installation.
Safety Information NOTE This equipment is not intended to be directly powered by power distribution systems where phase-phase voltages exceed 240V AC (2P+PE), such as those used in Norway, France, and other countries. For these applications it is recommended that a transformer be used to step down the voltage to < 240V AC from phase-phase, or that you make a connection to a (P+N+PE) power distribution where voltages do not exceed 240V AC.
WARNING! When working with laser optic modules, always take the following precautions to avoid exposure to hazardous radiation. ● Never look at the transmit LED/laser through a magnifying device while it is powered on. ● Never look directly at a fiber port on the switch or at the ends of a fiber cable when they are powered on. ● Invisible laser radiation can occur when the connectors are open. Avoid direct eye exposure to the beam when optical connections are unplugged.
